Resolving Everyday Conflict

Conflict is common. It’s common to all people and it’s common to all of life. It’s usually experienced in our ordinary interactions with an overbearing boss, a challenging colleague, a difficult neighbor, a moody teenager, a complaining spouse, etc. Conflict is common but applying the gospel to our conflicts is not. Most of us hate conflict. So we either respond with dysfunctional conflict avoidance or dysfunctional anger. Either way bitterness and callousness set in. Though we want to deal with conflict in a more God-honoring, people-loving way we often do not know how to.

Resolving Everyday Conflict is a nine-week study, based on the book by Peacemaker Ministries, that seeks to unpack key biblical principles for dealing with conflict resolution and cultivating healthier relationships. It is a Christ-centered study that presents powerful and practical answers to everyday problems. Whether you’re struggling in a relationship at home, at work, at school, or know someone who is, this study offers help for living out the gospel in our relationships.

Workbooks are available for this study (from our Wednesday night service – 7:00pm each week). If you would like to purchase a copy, please email the church office. Cost per book: $5. I addition, you can also pick up the book copy of the original material from Peacemaker Ministries: Resolving Everyday Conflict here.

Questions and Answers

Bible Q&A
1. It seems that for the average Christian, that there is misunderstanding about what constitutes studying the Scriptures. One misunderstanding is that if I am simply reading the Bible and listening to sermons – even daily – I am studying the Bible. Another is that if I am not following a formal fill-in-the-blank study prepared by someone else I can not study, or am not studying, the Bible. I think many of us assume we are studying the Bible, but we are not; and if left to ourselves with just our Bibles we would be be adrift. We love the Bible and want to study it for ourselves, but I don't think many of us really are. What is true Bible study?
1. (Begins at minute 29:11) How would you recommend a young person high school and older begin to personally, systematically study the Bible? Can you recommend books or resources?
